(click to enlarge)I created this piece today just for Illustration Friday. It's been awhile since I made a piece on a Friday for IF and it felt so good to play with the theme and see what I came up with.

I started off thinking of a pirate type captain, which then led me to think of a ship captain like for a cruise ship, then I started thinking airline captains, and after that I couldn't stop thinking about retro flight attendants. So this piece ended up being a slight stretch but I think fits the theme with the following quote:

Claudine- This is great. I am glad you didn't go with Pirate. It seemed to be the obvious route and too many of us went the easy way. I think "Ruthie" is perfect. Retro flight attendants are the best kind.
